What was measured

TTD was defined as the time from date of randomization to the first time the participant's score showed a 3-point or greater decrease in FKSI-DRS. FKSI was used to assess symptoms and quality of life (QoL) for those diagnosed with advanced kidney cancer and it consisted of 19 questions. A 9-item subscale of the FKSI known as FKSI-Disease Related Symptoms subscale (FKSI-DRS). This subscale included 9 items: lack of energy, pain, losing weight, bone pain, fatigue, shortness of breath, coughing, bothered by fevers, and hematuria. Each of the 9 items was answered on a 5-point Likert-type scale ranging from 0 to 4 (0= not at all, 1= a little bit, 2= somewhat, 3= quite a bit, 4= very much). Total FKSI-DRS score = sum of the 9 item scores; total range: 0 - 36; 0 (no symptoms) to 36 (very much); higher score indicated greater presence of symptoms.

Analysis population: FAS included all randomized participants.

Groups in this outcome

Avelumab + Axitinib

Participants with aRCC received avelumab 10 mg/kg, IV at Q2W in a 6-week cycle plus axitinib 5 mg, orally BID. Each treatment cycle was 42 days.

Sunitinib

Participants with aRCC received sunitinib 50 mg orally, QD on a schedule of 4 weeks on treatment followed by 2 weeks off treatment (schedule 4/2 in 6-week cycles). Each treatment cycle was of 42 days.
